How guest reviews work
Each review score is between 1-10. To get the overall score that you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of review scores we’ve received. We use a weighted review system which means that the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. In addition, guests can give separate ‘subscores’ in crucial areas, such as location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value for money and free Wi-Fi. Note that guests submit their subscores and their overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an Accommodation that you booked through our Platform if you stayed there or if you arrived at the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, please contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialise in detecting fake reviews submitted to our Platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone else who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team, so our Fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we would publish every review we receive, whether positive or negative. However, we won’t display any review that includes or refers to (among other things):
- Politically sensitive comments
- Promotional content
- Illegal activities
- Personal or sensitive information (e.g. emails, phone numbers or credit card info)
- Swear words, sexual references, hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, or references to violence
- Spam and fake content
- Animal cruelty
- Impersonation (e.g. if the writer is claiming to be someone else)
- Any violation of our review guidelines.
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out, and we may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old – or if the Accommodation has a change of ownership.
An Accommodation may choose to reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (what language a review is in, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). If you like, you can sort and/or filter them (by time of year, review score, etc.).
We sometimes show external review scores from other well-known travel websites. We make it clear when we’ve done this.
Guidelines and standards for Reviews
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly without limiting expression of strong opinions. They are also applicable regardless of the sentiment of the comment.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include 'hate speech', discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, and the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options may be available (by type of traveller, by score, etc.).

Verified reviewCamera a Palermo is an exceptional guest house. Everything was absolutely wonderful. From clean and comfortable rooms to complimentary breakfast. The host Sylvia is a wonderful person. During my stay she was really friendly, helpfull and caring. If you choose this hotel you can definitely be sure, that Sylvia will do her best to keep you satisfied and happy. She really takes her care seriously from asking you how was your day to playing "Fast and Furious" if you really need a quick ride to the airport. All together if you choose Mondello as your destination, then "Camera a Palermo" is the hotel you want to stay in!!

Verified reviewSuch a lovely place and warm and caring host. Hats off to Silvia and family, the way they run this beautiful accomodation. Very clean, you have all that you need and the property is tucked in a peaceful area of Mondello. Beach is just 15-20mins by walk, but if you don't want to walk, there is a free bus 87 that takes you to the beach or you have the normal bus 614 too. The room was big, clean and a big wardrobe to store your things comfortably. The bed is so comfortable that we slept like babies. The bathroom too is perfect with all the amenities and spotless. Every morning Silvia cooked delicious breakfast for us. She always asked our preference and informed us what she would cook the next day and asked us if that was ok. We really felt so much at home and felt as if we are a part of the family. She is an amazing lady always smiling and passionately runs the business. There is a beautiful roof top terrace where you can relax and the breakfast is served there every morning. So we enjoyed it along with the view. One day we were also offered a ride to the beach by her son for free. Such a generous family. I would definitely return to Silvia's place. The beach as well was beautiful and not that crowded as we visited in the end of September. All in all I give 5 stars to Camera a Palermo.💙
dearest N. thanks for your amazing words!!! you and your husband are so sweet, smiling couple, it was a really pleasure meet you, I hope to see you again. thanks, thanks ❤️

Verified reviewVery nice hostess of the apartments. I felt her care and help as if I was with my mother, and being safe is my main priority since I was traveling alone. I had wonderful varied breakfasts, always taking into self preferences for dishes and time of serving breakfast. Sylvia is a pleasant and responsive person who kindly helped with important advice for the trip and simply pleasantly maintained communication. The accommodation itself is fully consistent with the description. There are all the amenities listed. For me alone there was enough space, even to do a morning wake-up workout. All in all I liked being at this place even more because of human factor. Already thinking about my next trip to Sicily especially to this place.

Verified reviewSilvia is a very friendly, kind and helpful person. She asked us about the breakfast every day, and she prepared very delicious meal. We ate the breakfast in a big terrace every day, and see the sea and the mountains around. The room was very clean and the air conditon worked very well. We liked the atmosphere. The beach was about 15 minutes walk away. The water is very clear.
The street was sometimes noisy, but I understand it, because the Sicilian cultural lifestyle is different. :-)
Dear E. and L. it was so amazing time spent together, you are so sweet, so lovely couple, I hope to see you as soon as possible. have an amazing life, I love you 💕

Verified reviewSilvia was the best host from start to finish. She picked us up/dropped us off at the airport with a car seat for our 6 month old baby. During our stay she was so lovely and helpful, she couldn't so enough for us. Every morning her husband cooked us a homemade breakfast on the terrace and a little something for our baby too! All fresh and fresh coffee and croissants every morning too. Silivia's son wife and grandson were staying there at the same time and they were so good to our baby also. Silivia gave us recommendations and gave us some mosquito patches for our baby. Such a great host, she really made our stay in Mondello. We had a cot in the room and baby bath/chair also. High chair for breakfast and car seat too! Highly recommend this place 20 minute walk to the beach or there's a bus also.
Absolutely nothing, everything was perfect

Verified reviewIt was very pleasant and sincere staying at Silvias' place. Apartment is located in 15min walk or 7min drive by car from sandy Mondello beach. You can also reach the beach by bus Nr87 which is free. Among amenities is air conditioner. The neighbourhood is quiet and safe. Nearby are tasty pizzeria, ice cream shop, sicilian street food cafe and a few nice restaurants. The best part of staying was very warm and kind attitude from Silvia and of course great breakfast on the terrace. Great vacation. I would recommend staying there.
You can get to the Palermo center by taking public bus. But be careful - don't rely on public bus schedule, buses comes and goes in different times!

Verified reviewI had a truly delightful experience at the facility during my recent stay. The owner was exceptionally nice and helpful, which made my visit even more enjoyable. They went above and beyond to provide all the necessary information I needed during my trip, making my travels seamless and stress-free. The hospitality and attentiveness of the owner truly stood out, and I felt like I was in good hands from the moment I arrived. It was evident that they genuinely cared about their guests and took pride in providing exceptional service. This level of personal attention and assistance greatly contributed to a positive and memorable stay. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone looking for a comfortable and welcoming place to stay. The outstanding service and warm atmosphere created by the owner have left a lasting impression on me, and I am eager to return during my future travels.

Worst breakfast in Sicily
dear G and your young boyfriend, I am so sorry that you didn't like staying in my structure, it seemed to you that I had a swimming pool.. I don't know how you thought this; you thought you had the kitchen for exclusive use, but it is specified that the kitchen is shared. In the end you asked me, through booking.com, to have the money back for 4 of the 6 nights you had booked, with a non-refundable reservation. I asked with booking.com if I had to accept, booking.com told me: don't accept, in any case you will get a bad review. but I wanted to partially satisfy you, I gave you back the money for 2 nights, explaining to you that it was a kindness I was doing towards you. in the end you behaved meanly. I thank you in any case, you will always be welcome no matter what. p.s. your young boyfriend enjoyed the breakfasts!!!
